Answer to Question 1

B
The health history and physical assessment data correlate with the lab results to identify those clients at risk for infections. Lab values indicative of infection would include increased neutrophil and lymphocyte count, normal eosinophils and basophils, and possible increase in monocytes.

Answer to Question 2

D
In the prodromal stage, nonspecific symptoms begin and then become specific to the infectious process. The infectious agent continues to invade and multiply in the host. The client may also be infectious to others during this stage.
